"Agree to Disagree"? No, I Don't Think So.

I hear that phrase regularly from 'gun control' advocates when they're getting pushed to provide evidence or support for their claims. Here's one example of a Canadian PuSH'er after being unable to defend her belief that gun control saved her country from doom.

To all of you who have replied to me...and there are many of you........We are going to have to agree to respectfully disagree on this one. I don't consider I have lost a freedom because we have strict gun control laws in Canada. I feel fortunate to live in a country where people don't generally feel the need to carry a hand gun to protect themselves.

We have less murders, accidental deaths and suicide on a per capita basis from guns than the United states and I am very happy for that. It doesn't matter why....

And when she can no longer defend herself, just like the sycophant 'Kelli' on the old Brady Blog, she cries 'harassment' and that we must, you guessed it, 'agree to disagree' because discussion is 'futile'.

Now THAT I will agree with. Trying to 'discuss' anything w/ staunch gun control advocates is 'futile' because it will, without fail, end up w/ them claiming we should 'agree to disagree'. In varying levels of politeness.

No. I don't think so.

Why? Because in the big picture, they're trying to restrictME, I'M not trying to restrict THEM. They may pull some anecdotes out of their @sses to show why they're afraid of all these gun owners but, when the real numbers are shown, they scurry away w/ 'agree to disagree'.

So again. No, I don't think so. And I will continue to disagree w/ them and actively oppose them every chance I get.
